Alpine Skiing

When wheelchair athlete Chantal Petitclerc won 10 gold medals combined at the 2004 and 2008 Paralympic Summer Games, she was reserved a star on Canada's Walk of Fame. So where does that place skier Lauren Woolstencroft - who earned at least half a star with five golds at the 2010 Paralympic Winter Games?

Lauren Woolstencroft of North Vancouver, B.C., won her fifth gold medal — the most ever by a Canadian at single Winter Paralympics — by taking the women’s standing super-combined skiing event on Saturday at the 2010 Games.

More Gold

Lauren Woolstencroft considered retirement after winning a gold and silver medal at the 2006 Paralympic Games in Turin, and now she is entertaining the thought again with four gold medals in four races at the 2010 Games in Whistler.
